After a year in storage, finally installed the Mopar viscous drive 5 blade fan (P4120758) to replace the fixed 7 blade fan. Did not have any cooling system problems, just thought it would be an upgrade. I don't know if it shows in the foto, but the aftermarket 22" shroud I installed some time ago has about a 5/8" gap at the top of the radiator (the radiator is aftermarket). It looks to me like the shroud has warped, it never did fit tight up against the radiator. I don't know if the original problem was the non-stock radiator or the shroud (or both).
Last week at a radiator shop I had the radiator cleaned and had them switch the overflow outlet from the passenger side to the driver's side in preparation to install a factory style (aftermarket) overflow bottle and bracket I purchased. But the bracket does not fit. For some reason, the bracket will not squeeze in all the way to the radiator frame where it needs to be fastened (I see some more fabricating in my future).
